Not sure if this is the right forum, but what the hey.

Can anyone give me any pointers on installing the WordPress software on a Windows platform?

I am with SupaNames and wanted to see if this is do-able.

Thankyou.

Not sure if this is the right forum either, but wordpress is written in PHP

, so the answer is that you can certainly use a windows server and install wordpress. It uses MySQL database, and I would guess it runs best on an Apache server, so you milage will very. Check out the installation readme file for any windows gotchas.
